Rabbi Meow-ir asks: When is the earliest time to serve the cat breakfast? The sages said: An hour before sunrise. Rabbi Pawpaw said: When the cat wakes up and asks for it. Said Rabbi Parvah: If there is kibble in the dish from the night before, we assume that the cat is not hungry and may sleep a little longer. Rabbi Girgur says: If there is kibble in the dish from the night before and the cat lies beside you in bed, relaxed and purring, you may luxuriate in bed till after sunrise. The sages rebuked him: And what about attending prayers on time? Said Rabbi Girgur: Is it not better to attend prayers after doing a meowtzvah -- in this case, that of comforting and feeding one's cat?
